I got this reply today from the seller -

Dear proudfather76,

Hello!

I have to say, I am somewhat skeptical of this being .22 caliber. The profile and the muzzle pics look like 30 Luger/7,65 Parabellum caliber. Is it actually .22 caliber???

Do you have a pic of the chamber end???

Thank you for your help!

Dear Rich B.

Yep, my eyeballs were telling the truth, it's still a .22, no matter how many times I look at it. You are being fooled by it's looks in the picture because it is scaled down. It's nowhere near as big as it looks in the photo. Camera app is not cooperating, sorry.
